[ this isn't how it's supposed to go. love is supposed to be stronger than this, and they were in love, despite everything, despite even themselves, so shouldn't they be able to work through this?
but all keith keeps doing is apologizing, without offering any means to fix it, and without really knowing what the issue is, lance doesn't have any solutions either. keith says it isn't about him, and that's fair, that makes sense, keith was his own person well before he and lance were ever a thing, but what does that mean for them in the meantime? is he just going to have to accept that there's some part of keith he can't reach?
is that how it's supposed to go? ]
I don't know how to fix this, Keith.
[ by now, keith's already backed away. he can't even see him from where he stands now, so he's not even sure if the other boy heard him or not. ]
